HH. BREAKING: “QUIET, PIGGY!” — Jimmy Kimmel TORCHES Trump After He Demands ABC Take His Show Off the Air

Late-night television erupted into full-scale comedic warfare last night after Jimmy Kimmel delivered one of his sharpest, coldest, and most devastating on-air takedowns of Donald Trump — a response to a furious, after-midnight social-media tirade in which the former president demanded ABC “get the bum off the air.”

The fictionalized feud ignited after Kimmel made a joke referencing Trump’s alleged efforts to keep sensitive documents and high-profile files out of the public eye. Within minutes of the episode ending, Trump launched a rapid-fire meltdown on Truth Social, attacking Kimmel’s talent, his ratings, and the very existence of the show itself.

“Get the bum off the air!!!” he wrote.
“Why does ABC keep Jimmy Kimmel on with NO TALENT and VERY POOR RATINGS?”

But Kimmel, a seasoned veteran of televised political combat, didn’t simply respond — he detonated.

Opening his monologue the following night, Kimmel zeroed in on the timestamp of Trump’s rant. Trump’s post appeared at 12:49 a.m., a mere eleven minutes after the episode ended. Kimmel flashed the screenshot onscreen and smiled.

“Thanks for watching us live!” he quipped. “It’s viewers like you who keep us on the air — ironically.”

The audience cracked up. But Kimmel’s comedic scalpel was only warming up.

He followed with a ruthless jab that instantly went viral: “It’s sweet that even in the middle of the biggest scandal swirling around him, he still finds time on the toilet to post about our show.”

The crowd roared, and Kimmel leaned in — the way he does when he knows the punch is about to land.

He riffed on Trump’s long-running tradition of obsessing over late-night hosts, especially Kimmel, noting that every few weeks the former president resurfaces with a fresh demand for ABC to fire him.

“Every five weeks he flips out and wants me fired,” Kimmel said. “If it were a neighbor doing this, you’d easily get a restraining order. The judge would be like: ‘Yeah, he’s nuts.’ Boom.”

The laughter reached a crescendo — and then came the mic-drop moment that instantly lit up social media feeds across the country.

“Mr. President,” Kimmel said, slipping into a mock-solemn tone, “I’ll go when you go. Let’s ride off into the sunset together like Butch Cassidy and the Suntan Kid. And until then… if I may borrow a phrase from you — quiet, piggy!”

Gasps. Cheers. Panic laughter. It was the kind of late-night moment destined to loop endlessly on TikTok, Twitter, and cable news highlight reels.

In this satirical narrative, Trump now finds himself trapped in a familiar cycle: mocked by a comedian → melts down online → demands cancellation → gets mocked harder. The internet has labeled it “the ouroboros of presidential fragility.”

Political commentators (fictionally, in this satire) noted that Trump’s fixation on Kimmel has become one of the most persistent subplots in the long-running drama between politics and pop culture. The more Kimmel pokes fun at him, the more Trump responds — and the stronger the monologue becomes the next night.

Meanwhile, ABC, enjoying the ratings bump, appears in no hurry to intervene.

Fans online exploded with reactions:

“Jimmy just ended him live on TV.”
“Trump watching Kimmel at 12:49 a.m. is killing me.”
“Kimmel calling him ‘piggy’ is hall-of-fame level.”

Whether the feud cools down or escalates into yet another cycle of late-night roast and presidential rage remains to be seen. But one thing this fictionalized blow-up makes clear: Jimmy Kimmel knows exactly how to turn a tantrum into television gold — and Donald Trump continues to be one of his most reliable sources of material.

For now, the late-night battlefield burns on, fueled by indignation, jokes, and a healthy dose of toilet-timed posting.
